This was an easy to use and easy to customize app for creating give-away contests. I like how it doesn't have to pop up on the webpage, so it doesn't disrupt the buyer's experience - they can use it if they choose or ignore it.

I installed the app yesterday. Easy to install and to manage. Great app. For those who are looking for localization (translation) this app is awesome.

This app was easy to set up and looks nice in my store. On my end everything has been great. I'm paying for a more expensive plan, but I figured it would be worth it. My customers, however, hate it. I have constant messages of issues on their end with social boost not counting certain sign ups (especially Youtube subscriptions). I've recommended basic trouble shooting like using a different browser, turning off adblock, etc, but I really can't fix their issues since it's an issue with social boost and not on my end or anything I have any control over. I can't find a way to manually add entries for these customers either so I get the brunt of their anger. When my giveaway is over, I won't be using it again. It's a shame because, again, on my end it was great. But it needs to work for my customers or it's pointless!
[UPDATE: July 21, 2020] As promised, we have released a feature for admin to be able to manually add the entries. July 20, 2020 My name is Akash Malik. I am the founder of Apps Mav. I totally agree and understand your frustration. First of all my sincere apologies. You have raised two issues: Manually adding entries: I agree that we should have this feature and thank you for pointing this out. Accordingly I have discussed this with my team and we will release this new feature within the next two days. Our apps are regularly enhanced based on customer feedback , which is very valuable for us. For YouTube subscription - Please let me clarify by saying that if the action does not receive a verification callback from YouTube, the subscription will not be counted or rewarded- So perhaps this is the reason for the observed behavior. Additionally, my colleagues have thoroughly tested by entering your campaign as multiple users via different devices and browsers and I can confirm that all subscription entries are being counted for your giveaway and the action is working as defined. If you see a different behavior, please email the entrants' details to [email protected] and I will get this investigated further. We will email the test screenshots to you. Stay Safe And Regards Akash

This app is fantastic!! seriously exceeding my expectations. its extremely user friendly, i created an awesome looking competition in no time. whenever i needed any assistance the support was immediate and friendly (which is sometimes not the case for expensive paid apps!). super stoked with this, highly recommended :)

We used Social Boost to run our pre-launch social sharing giveaway and it's really great! Super easy to set up and install and we got a lot of engagement. It's really full-featured in terms of entry options and all settings are configurable. You can even set it up so that customers are automatically added to your Shopify customer list when they enter the contest. We had it run on our password page while our shop was in pre-launch and it worked great. Would highly recommend and definitely will use again in the future!

I wish the ways to customize looked a little more modern, but super happy so far with my experience.

I use this app for giveaways. I love the incentives. It helps to get more interaction and feels less spammy to people who participate

Terrific app. very customizable and flexible, and simple enough to set up a campaign very quickly - even first time. I needed some support and used the instant chat feature - Parveen was magnificent. Very helpful. 5 Stars allround!

Relatively simple to use but seems to have a lot of advanced features. This app is a great bang for the buck.

Installed the app to run contests out of curiosity. To my pleasant surprise, we received 28 applicants in 24 hours. Wish they were sales but still rewarding customers or prospects is a good way to let others know about your business.

This app worked so well for us to run a giveaway. We linked to the other sponsors so we could send traffic to their stores for extra entries and found the whole thing really easy to use! Thanks!
